(NAPSI)—According to the National Safety Council, an American is
accidentally injured every second by a preventable event, a vehicle crash, a
fall or the like. If you or someone you care about is ever among them, there
are things you should know.

One Man’s Story

“I was a victim twice,” says Jose V., as he recalled his
five-year ordeal that began at a construction site. “First, the day I
was working to off-load a 3,000-pound bag when, all of a sudden, the operator
lifted the cables and my fingers were mangled and the doctor had to remove
three of them,” he explained. “Then, I found out this was only
the start of my problems and I would become a victim again. My bills were
getting out of control, I was about to lose my apartment, and I had no idea
how I would care for my family. I was depressed and scared. Even now I get
shaken up thinking how bad it was.”

Jose is not alone. He is one of tens of thousands of average, everyday
people from around the country who each year find themselves battling
insurance companies and other deep-pocket defendants who delay settlement of
legitimate insurance claims.

“When you are physically damaged and struggling for almost five
years to regain your strength and your ability to work, it takes a mental
toll,” said Jose. “Bills piled up fast and the settlement was
very slow in coming. There was one delay after another. I was just determined
not to give up, and between the support I got from my family and the advance
I received from LawCash, I did not have to accept a
lowball settlement. The longer they delayed resolving the case, the more
concerned I became about being on the street. If it were not for the money I
was advanced over the five years it took to settle, my children would have suffered
even more and the greater the pressure I would have been under to accept
whatever amount I was first offered,” he added.

For Jose, as with thousands of Americans each year, financial relief came
in the form of what the legal community calls pre-settlement funding.
According to Harvey Hirschfeld, president of LawCash, “Our firm is in the business of leveling
the playing field for consumers whose meritorious claims are being delayed.
With cash on hand to pay for life needs such as rent and general living
expenses, managing cash flow, and securing medical care while awaiting
settlement of their case, victims are in a stronger position and don’t
have to simply accept the amount a company’s insurer initially offers.”

How It Works

The company does not promote or encourage litigation. All its clients must
be represented by legal counsel and must have filed a legitimate claim before
it will accept an application. Nor does it influence the case itself, as all
decisions related to the legal approach and overall strategy
are between the victim and his or her attorney.

Perhaps most importantly, the pre-settlement funding—a minimum of
$500—is not a loan. If the case is lost, claimants owe nothing. In
addition, they’re not required to put up collateral or make interim
payments, and the advance has no effect on their credit.

“My doctors repaired my hand,” said Jose. “LawCash allowed me to live. Since I didn’t have to
take a lowball settlement, my lawyer was able to keep up the fight for me and
my family. This resulted in a fair settlement for many times more than I
would have gotten if I had to settle early. For a portion of my total
settlement, I was able to protect my future and my family.”
